I don't think the cloud will make up the graphical difference, but it will give it a new type of power that can be used in ways ps4 can't, unless/until Sony makes good on their OpenStack cloud they mentioned once long ago around last year's e3.
I'm still set on getting a PS4 when the time comes, but if Crackdown makes good on that type of destructibility consistently in that game for the life of the XBox One, that's some awesomely impressive stuff, and the...
Awww. That's kinda sad.

regardless of whether they've maxed out the console:
"I love how people throw the "code to the metal" thing around without knowing what it means. Code to the metal means that developers can code almost the the capacity of the hardware based on the tools/software they have. "
You are throwing the 'code to the metal' thing around without knowing what means is my point. The whole point of coding to the metal i...
@tuglu_pati - actually coding to the metal means they have direct access to the gpu and memory bypassing any usual cross-hardware API limitations
she's so amazingly unfunny on stage at e3's it makes my face itch.
@XtraTrsTrl Super Charged High End ultra GPU powered Hyper PC version yeah, but just imagine a GPU rendering farm, hooked up to an oculus rift, and omni, that would knock this here thing into a whole 'nother universe
Gotta say, although the game still looks like it could be fun and I'll probably pick it up at some point, it's extremely disappointing graphically. Barely looks better than what I'd expect a direct port of MK9 to PS4 to look like. I wish they had just kept it exclusive to PS4/XB1/PC.
You can play non-fps games on XBox?

Yall just don't even get it. If the consoles were 10 times as powerful, some devs would still choose to sacrifice 60fps for even better graphics.
the 30fps thing only matters if the game is ugly, or if its a cross platform game and you're trying to show once again which console is more powerful

What the fluck?
Graphics are pretty, but it does look boring on rails as hell. Hopefully that's just the scenes they've shown so far.
So many developers that do impressive motion/performance capture, who get so close to making things look right, but 99% of them make the eyes not track to anything, so they look like weird mannequins with fixed eyes whenever the head moves even in subtle ways like walking.
They should just make it completely shut you out of your console if you don't go online to check in at least once every 24 hours.
I can never decide what my favorite rareware game is, either Killer Instinct, Donkey Kong Country, Conker's Bad Fur Day, or Kinect Sports Rivals.
Way to go MS, for using that studio to it's fullest!
We do. Check the articles within the last week on n4g, there are still countless XBox fans in severe denial. Even this comment section has mentions of DX12, and Kinectless XBox One bridging the evergrowing gap.
Not necessarily. These increases in speed are usually ratios/percentage increases. So if a developer finds a technique that improves the performance of both consoles:
say the ps4 can do 100 thingies in one second, and the xb1 can do 80 thingies in one second.
The gap is 20 thingies.
if they both get a 150% increase, then the ps4 can now do 150 thingies, and the xb1 can now 120 thingies.
The gap has now increased to 30 thing...
I can almost overlook the Red Faction : Guerrilla comparison, but did you seriously just compare BF4's scripted destruction elements to fully physics based destruction?
